PTM 215B switch

[Mo7ammed]

Hi, 

I would like to control the LEDs based on the PTM 215B switch by programming it using nRF52 DK. Where each button in the switch should turn one LED. 

I am using the following tools: 

• IAR Emedded Workbench IDE
• nRFgo Studio 
• nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a
• s132_nrf52_6.0.0

Hi,

 

The PTM 215B module is a energy harvesting module, which we have an example for in the nRF Mesh SDK v2.0.1:

http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.meshsdk.v2.0.1/md_examples_enocean_switch_README.html?cp=4_1_0_4_1

Unfortunately, the nRF Mesh SDK does not support IAR. You can use gcc or Segger Embedded Studio (free to use with nRF5-devices) to build the above project.

 

It might be that the vendor has already pre-loaded this device with mesh-firmware, so you may not have to program the switch itself. If this is the case, you can setup two kits as per the example documentation:

To see the demonstration, this example has to be used with a Provisioner and one or more Servers from the light_switch examples folder.

 

Best regards,

Håkon

Hi Håkon, 

Thanks for your support, but is it possible to do this example with only one nRF52 DK ????

Also, I'm new in this field, and I just want a simple connection between the PTM 215B and the nRF52 DK to control the 4 LEDs in the nRF52 DK.

I am not familiar with this specific module, but I suspect it has mesh firmware pre-loaded onto it. You can check with the supplier to verify this.

If the module has that, then you can follow the documentation for the nRF Mesh SDK to build the light_switch server application and the provisioner example in order to create the mesh network.

 

Best regards,

Håkon
